take. because the great success of the Shak-
er Extract of Roots lSiegel's Syrup is due
almost solely to the fact that it is made to
cure one single disease. namely, indiges-
ton. for which il is certain remedy. The
aching head. constiPated bowels, causing
languor and fatigue, vanish as soon as this

Another month has passed and The city
is without a fully constituted deputy
marshal. Last night at the council meet
ing The mayor proposed two names,
one being that OF Lawrence Kramer.
Both were rejected by the city council.
We know nothing As 10 MIR, Heater,
but Mr. Kramer states thai his
name was made use Of without his per-
mission, or without ever being consulted
and that he would not take the office IT
confirmed. VIZ don't the mayor cease
this hap hazard way Of dealing with the
matter? Find man Who will accept the
office, man amply qualified 10 properly
discharge the duties and then present his
u.me TO the council and there will be no
trouble about confirmation. Andy Elzel
was good one but he refused. Why
not try Barney McCabp now He is d
man of experience and would doubtless
be confirmed and accepted

A very important proposition was sub
mitted 10 the council last evening. one
that commends itself to the faithful c0n>
slderstiOn of our city II comes from
our former townsman, Milton G. Mills,
now of Wilton, Iowa. He proposes to
bore for natural gas in Rock Island if the
council will grant him permission to lay
pipes and supply customers In the
event of success, which he feels certain
will attend his efforts, his charges will
not exceed 20 cents per burner monthly
to private cusumers and 30 cents to the
city; 81 for cook stoves s, 80 for heat
ers, and for manufacturing purposes al
price equal to paying 81. 80 a ton FOL
the best soft coal Mr. Mills is anxious
to commence operations as soon rs pos
sible, and if the council grants its request
will get to work about December | Mr..
Mills has met with success in boring for
natural gas at Wilton, and he has reason
to believe the opportunities are greater
here than there Ii Mr.. Mills is success
full, he will bring 10 Rock Island such a
boom as few cities are caDable of attain
ing.
Mr. and Mrs Mills, who have spent
the past few days at the Harper, left for
the north this morning. and Mr.. Mills
will return in few DAYS to look after his
enterprise, The council will, of course,
put no obstacle in his way by refusing to
grant the privileges he asks.
